Historical Significance: Ollantaytambo was a strategic military, religious, and agricultural center during the Inca Empire. Built by Inca emperor Pachacuti in the 15th century as a royal estate. Later used by Manco Inca Yupanqui as a stronghold during his resistance against the Spanish conquest (notably the Battle of Ollantaytambo in 1537 — a rare Inca victory). Today, it's considered one of the best-preserved examples of Inca city planning.
